Aus Faces Far-Right Rallies as Indian Diaspora Grows
Business Standard
|September 01, 2025
Thousands of Australians on Sunday marched in cities across the country under the banner of 'March for Australia', staging anti-immigration rallies in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Hobart, and beyond, according to the group's website.
Promotional material for the rallies singled out immigration from India, with flyers warning of what organisers claimed was a demographic "replacement". One flyer read: "More Indians in 5 years, than Greeks and Italians in 100", adding, "This isn't a slight cultural change, it's a replacement plain and simple."
The Anthony Albanese government condemned the demonstrations in blunt terms, describing them as a "brand of Far-Right activism grounded in racism and ethnocentrism" that had "no place in the country". In a statement issued on Thursday, it said: "All Australians, no matter their heritage, have the right to feel safe and welcome in our community."
